Research

 

Become a facebook fan of CLAW before its outlawed! Web page is claw.fiu.edu.

 

My main research areas are in long term memory (particularly eyewitness testimony and social aspects of memory) and in methodology (particularly statistics).  I am interested in other areas of applied social and cognitive psychology (particularly those related to the legal system and survey methodology).  My research has been funded by the ESRC, Leverhulme, British Academy, TLDF, and others.

 

NEWS: Wright, Horry & Skagerberg (2009) named best paper in Behavior Research Methods of 2009.

 

My research is part of the CLAW (Cognitive Laboratory And

Workshop ... and with a Panther theme!). The website is not

active yet, but should be soon.

 

 

 

Marianna Carlucci's web page is here.

Ruth Horry's web page is here.

 

Software update: mrt (0.3) and sdtalt (1.02) have new versions and can be accessed through CRAN. mrt includes the new ngfinder function (Kelley & Wright, in press)

 

Below are my publications by year. Many of these have links to pdf files (which I am reconnecting now).  These are for personal/educational use only.  Some include links to materials (I plan to add more links).

Note on e-prints: Contact me if going to print or use on a course. All material is copyrighted.
